Kernel 7.0 didn't need to be a big deal. It went ahead and became one anyway.

      Most servers are most likely on LTS distros and won’t be affected by this bug.

      Interestingly it seems the first rule of kernel development, we don’t break user space should apply here.

        That’s the thing. It doesn’t break it to the point of unusable unlike other patches I think. So the test didn’t catch this since performance is rarely a part of a test suite no?
